E158 Improvise, Adapt, and Overcome with Paul de Gelder
from The Viall Files · host Kast Media
What if just showing up for work one day changed your life as you knew it? How would you react? Today Nick is joined by author, motivational speaker, and host of Shark Week, Paul de Gelder. As a Royal Australian Navy clearance diver, Paul was in the water working one morning when a bull shark attacked him, resulting in the loss of his right hand and right leg. Nick's conversation with Paul covers the changes in your mindset when adapting to a new normal, the importance of facing your vulnerability, and the power of choice which can help you decide, "do I want a good life or a shit life?" Dating, overcoming, terminators and sharks; it's a conversation not to miss. "Going to the gym with one hand and one leg can really throw out your bench press and squats."
